Quote:Man arrested for having sex on ferris wheel killed in carjacking


HOUSTON -- The Houston man who gained international attention for having sex while on a Las Vegas ferris wheel in February was killed in a carjacking Saturday morning.


At about 5 a.m. Phillip Panzica was shot and killed inside of his fiancee's vehicle after leaving an adult entertainment club, police said.

The two suspects, Bryant Christopher Watts, 28, and Aaron Jones, 31, were arrested hours later and have been charged with capital murder.

According to Houston police, Panzica was in the driver's seat of his fiancee's Kia Sorrento and she was in the passenger seat at the time.

The victim's former fiancee, Mistie Bozant, told police the two suspects were sitting in the backseat when Watts told Panzica to "come clean" before shooting him multiple times.

Bozant told KHOU-TV, that the night before Panzica's murder, he was bragging about the money they'd made off an interview with Inside Edition to the two men now charged with his murder. Bozant claims she had the $4,000 check from that interview and a whole lot of cash in her purse the night Panzica was killed.

"Philip didn't even have time to talk, the guy just shot him five times in the head," Bozant said.

Witnesses said they saw the suspects exit the vehicle, pull Panzica's body from the car and leave him in the roadway before demanding his fiancee to get out of the vehicle.

Bozant says tried to save Panzica.

"I was like, 'baby, stay with me.' I could still see his heart beating, but his eyes were just glassy," she said.

Panzica died on the scene. The two suspects are now facing capital murder charges.

Police say hours later, officers spotted the black Kia Sorrento speeding down a roadway and pursued the vehicle.

Multiple law enforcement agencies responded and the pursuit ended in Concho County, Texas.

The driver of the vehicle was identified as Watts and police say he admitted to the carjacking and fatal shooting.

Both suspects were found to have large amounts of cash in their possession.
